Achillies heel recommended surgeon

[pod8460]

Hi. I have just ruptured my achillies heel and have been to bp hospital, Pattaya. I have been told i need surgery. I asked the doctor how many he has preformed, he said 10.

Has anyone had such a surgery in the pattaya area that was successful and that you would recommend. If so could you give me the name of the surgeon and contact details . I do have bupa insurance. Thanks for any replies.

You will not get the highest degree of experience and expertise in Pattaya. This is well worth a trip to Bangkok where there are some excellent specialists in sports medicine including the following docs who specifically specializes in foot/ankle/heel problems:

Both are US trained - the first one, at Harvard.
